Cæsarean Expansion, 200-225 CE
Cæsarean Expansion, 200-225 CE
The bloody wars in the north were declared again. The Republic of Frankia, weakened by the intense conflict of the last decades, was the target of a German attack that sought revenge after suffering the last offensive. Innocent, thinking that it would have much support, the Republic Frankia tried to solidify defensive institutions to avoid another defeat, which, of course, failed. The Caravingian League refused to join the fight, and only a few far members from the so-called "Vuugist League" were willing to help in any way. Our analyzes simply assumed that this aid would never come, since Rome had never even heard of these distant nations. With Frankia surrounded by enemies, the second defeat of these miserable worshipers of vuugism was expected, and it was only a matter of time before their domains were reduced to dust.
The Grand Army of the Republic marched to Ketillheim, an associate state of France, through a large highway that would connect Cæsarea to its greatest ally. With the twelve thousand soldiers, many families and reserve soldiers also left our dominions. They were heading toward the western alps to absolutely solidify our control over the deadly mountains that surrounded and protected our nation from any external threat that might come from the north. These settlers relied on the support of established families in these perilous lands, and hoped that an unexpected snowstorm would not stop them as they traveled to their destinations. The roads were thin (and sometimes tight), and surrounded large lakes and very beautiful rivers. The snowy mountains hid a lot of riches, and it was from there that Cæsarea began to extract beautiful, precious stones like the amethyst. With these expeditions, the border between the Caesarian Republic and the Kingdom of France, two great allies, was officially established.
Another expedition, very different from the previous ones, was also organized. It was known of the existence of some islands west of Rome. Since the Republic was in a state of war, things could be organized much more quickly. The settlement of these islands was very attractive, and it was not long before new expeditions were organized, this time to conquer them. As ground combat was our specialty, our ships and ships became very obsolete. Despite this, the proximity of the islands of the Peninsula made settlement possible. Over the years many families have left the continent to settle in the newly conquered lands of Corsica. The lands of Corsica proved very useful. Farms and plantations were established in that place, which caused the new generations to flourish very quickly.
